I’m at work, so I can’t color this strip right now! Too much to do, work, work, all that jazz.
I hope Lindsey can callous over her mom and grow beyond her, though I doubt that will happen without distance.
I had a good Labor Day weekend! Hiking on Monday was nice, albeit delayed (as you have read).
Check for more when you wanna — I’m gonna go get lunch.
I’m not sure if this strip is specifically about this week or about these past two weeks, but it’s been rough! ups and downs, lefts and rights, and always twirling, twirling… twirling towards freedom…
but 
I’m making it good. It’s hard, but the hardness pays off.

Heh.
Hardness.
I’m watching standup right now. I feel bad for a lot of these comics, but I can say the same for my own work. BA DUM CHH.
here’s a video:
goodnight!
My car is green. Like, light green. It’s a pretty unique color that I VERY RARELY SEE and—let’s be honest—most cars are black or white or gray or blue or red.
Green stands out. I think people wanna see who’s in the green car. And I often forget that my car is green—I didn’t actually pick the color, I inherited it from my family. So I’m always thinking, am I going crazy?? are people looking at me?? keep your ego in check, dude.
anywho, here’s a video, I’m tired, it’s thursday, blah blah blah, goodnight!
I get a lot of anxiety when people push me in traffic, so it’s tough for me not to react to it. But I try. It makes sense to let people in. For the Greater Good.
The Greater Good.
The Greater Good.
EDIT: My dear friend Sarah thinks she knows more about California traffic than I do.
Actually, the driving ahead and merging there is better. Utilizing the extra lane helps keep traffic from backing up as much. What people should do is zipper merge and drive up to the end of the lane, and merge between every other car, but ofc that never happens. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

So I illustrated it better, because you kinda gotta keep comics concise, and because I’ll be damned if I’m not doing my best commute:
I made a new video, too:
It’s the tenth day I’ve done one! OK goodnight.
me being right just means lindsey’s mom really does care that little about her daughter.
I’m tired. I made a video. this is a short comic but it’s better than no comic. here’s the video:
goodnight
I think the weirdest thing is that, to Lindsey, this is normal. So I have to point all this shit out to her and I feel like… am I trying to ruin her relationship with her parents?? I’m not, but they (her mom, specifically) do so much terrible shit to her (and transitively, me) that I’m always saying, “this isn’t normal. this isn’t what nice people who care about you would do.”
I hope she doesn’t resent me for it eventually. She’s never going to be able to change her parents, and if all I’m doing is complaining, what’s that doing to our relationship?
also HI it’s MONDAY NIGHT and I just watched BETTER CALL SAUL and I guess I gotta go do that now. brb.
ok I just got off the phone w/ saul and he was like “what’s up” and I was like “s’all good, man.”
wanna watch another sobriety video?
bye!
it’s been a long week! I made 4 comics and 5 videos, maintained sobriety, began and “completed” a week-long project at work, ate right, went to the gym twice, and got (mostly) enough sleep.
and now I’m tired.
here’s yesterday’s video link (since I didn’t get a comic up yesterday) and below is today’s (friday’s) video! thanks for checking those out!
have a good weekend! I’ll try to have something fun online this weekend, so KEEP COMIN’ BACK.
MAN. Another comic. I bet y’all are tired of me waxing and waning on updates.
“Do I read his comic, or do I wait a month and let the two updates pile up??” you’re thinking.
Well let me just tell you: if you are a dedicated reader I fully expect you reread every comic I’ve ever made every day. If you don’t do that, you’re not a true reader.
I mean… gatekeeping? What’s that?
The last panel is kinda a nod to this Achewood strip. Kinda.
Also, here’s a new video!
It was great, I swear, y’all. It was so good. Such a good joke. Too bad you weren’t there to be a part of it. MAN, that was funny. HOOO BOY. Laugh and a half with a staff of Zach Braffs.
Remember yesterday’s comic? And the video project I’m working on? Well now there’s a part TWO!
hi! I did something new yesterday and it’s kinda scary because I haven’t expressed myself like this before and I hope you enjoy the journey!–also–trying something new motivated me enough to make today’s comic, too!
